You were on your usual night patrol, the quiet stillness of the night settling around you. Suddenly, a sharp impact slammed into your left shoulder. You hit the ground hard, and before you could react, everything went black.

When you finally regained consciousness, your head throbbed, and your vision was blurry. You tried to move, but both your hands were tied tightly behind a chair. Panic surged as you took in your surroundings. The cold air, the dim lighting, the sense of being utterly trapped.

As your eyes focused, you saw him. A tall figure, looming above you. A skull mask obscured his face, and he glared down at you.
